Children’s Books about Harvest

We’re getting well into the harvest season and it’s a perfect time to read about this time of year with the kids! We’ve already featured a harvest unit study, but I wanted to share a few more children’s books about harvest that feature picking apples, pumpkins, corn, and all kinds of fall produce.

There are even books that talk about the harvest moon, which is a great way to talk about lunar cycles.

Once you read a couple of these books, be sure to take the kids pumpkin picking, apple picking, or running through a corn maze. You might even want to make an apple pie with your kids! By the way, if you make an apple pie successfully, please explain it to me. I’m terrified of attempting to make a pie from scratch. 🙂
